General Information Platform presentation General Information 6 General Information XIII Symposium tribute The congress bags are sponsored by Dupont® for the XIII Symposium in Pesticide Chemistry. In this edition of the conference the local organising committee decided to support the poor children hosted in the agro-ecological schools of Progetto Meninos – Frei Giorgio (Brasil). The Progetto Meninos – Frei Giorgio is an initiative of Italian groups that support CEPE - Centro Ecumênico de Publicações e Estudos, a Brazilian association of cultural and educational purposes, engaged in the development of social and educative principles based on the work done by Frei Giorgio Callegari, Dominican missionary in Brazil. Frei Giorgio, whose name is Father Callegari, is an Italian missionary who set up different buildings for poor people. His activities focus on benefiting and improving the lives of the children. All the bags have been handcrafted by the children and members of the mission with creativity and using recycled material collected in the area. The handcrafted design represents the conference logo and it is a vegetal frieze that runs along the external side of the bag: it communicates a message of fecundity and fullness. The transformation and the dynamic growth of the branches, small leaves and buds, with no fruits, aims at representing the endless of regeneration of natural cycles, then never reach an end. With this symbolism in mind we wish a fruitful and productive Symposium. The local organising committee of the XIII Symposium through the economical support of Dupont will help the Mission to contribute in the organisation of a bakery school that will be organised in Peruibe occurring the same days as the conference. Around 100 children will attend the bakery school. The Organising Committee thanks Dupont for supporting this initiative and the Progetto Meninos and everyone who collaborated at this initiative. If you are interested in learning more about the Progetto Meninos visit www.cepe.org.br and www.coloniaveneza.com.br. The photographs below show the small red flowers and the bags being handcrafted one by one.

The hosts will offer aperitivi, stuzzichini, risotto and an emphasised closure with the gelato. Gelato is an oldrespected recipe of the Italian cuisine, too often confused with the more popular icecream. It is made with eggs, sugar and milk or fruit, and it can be variously flavoured. When it is made in a true, well balanced food along the Mediterranean tradition, it can substitute a dish or a whole meal, increasing nutrient intake and also general wellness by means of its high taste quality together with its optimal protein, sugar, and fat content. Some gelato’s are presented, that are recovered from old and out-of-fashion recipes, studied and developed with modern techniques to obtain flavoursome and healthy products. Giovanna Bosto is the outstanding gelato maker collaborating with the Institute for improving this recipe with a scientific understanding. Venue:Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Fee: Free to registrants Excursion Tuesday afternoon, 4 September, 16.50 After the last scientific sessions of the day, participants are invited to participate to the visit of the Cistercian Abbey Chiaravalle della Colomba founded in XI century by a small group of Cluny monks. The Abbey is located in the countryside of Piacenza about 25 km far. Among the treasures of the church of Chiaravalle della Colomba, not the very least is the ancient pipe organ, made by the renowned organ builder Cavalletti about the year 1760 and restored by Bonizzi-Inzoli in the 1996. The instrument is a little one, in agreement with the Italian tradition: the one keyboard has 47 keys only and of the 16 stops, only 1 or 2 can be used alone. The main purpose of this kind of instruments was the accompaniment of the monk choir during the church Liturgy and it was never used as a concert tool. Venue: Conference building Fee: Free to registrants with own transport Book at the registration desk Social and Cultural Programme Monday 3 September, 19.00 Social and Cultural Programme 24 Concert in Theatre Social and Cultural Programme Tuesday afternoon, 4 September, 18.50 The little opera “The third marriage” will be performed in the Fiorenzuola theatre (Fiorenzuola, Piacenza). It has been written and composed especially for the XIII Symposium Pesticide Chemistry, going on with a custom begun many years ago. In its 30 minutes of spoken or singed (roughly Moroccan) English or Italian words, a brief love history among three people is broadcasted by a DJ and its sound assistant, while the three singers-and-lovers and an American she-lawyer Clinton take part by phone or by radio: a mere joke to entertain while waiting for the dinner. Andrea Di Gregorio answers for the libretto, Attilio Del Re for the music. The small Fiorenzuola d’Arda theatre is a typical example of the 19th century country theatres in Italy. The town council decided to build a theatre and other public services on the site of a former abbey in the 1841 and after some years, with the patronage of the duchess Maria Luigia of Parma and Piacenza (as it is known in Italy the last wife of Napoleone Bonaparte), the theatre was build by the architect Perreau and decorated by the painter Bertolotti. It was planned for opera performance, the most fashionable entertainment in the many Italian kingdoms or duchies of the time. The Verdi’s opera Attila was performed on the theatre dedication in 1853. In the years 1914/15 the building was heavily remodelled and the artist Varoli painted a number of mythological figures on the ceiling and many portraits of musicians on the walls. The theatre was closed in the sixties and but recently restored by the local municipality. to be used for theatrical production and music performance. Venue: Conference building Fee: Free to registrants with own transport Book at the registration desk Social and Cultural Programme 25 Social Dinner Tuesday afternoon, 4 September, 20.30 The dinner will be served at the “Da Giovanni” restaurant (Cortina di Alseno, Piacenza), where Renato Besenzoni and his wife Teresa make the best truly Italian food of the county. Dishes of the Piacenza tradition are renewed with the utmost conformity to the old fashion and sometimes pulled together to older customs. In this style, a very ancient recipe will be presented during the dinner, an apple-and-pork soup that goes up to a lieutenant of C. Julius Caesar, C. Matius, and to the 1st century b.C.. A very interesting dish that has been pieced together from a famous 5th century cookbook and aligned with the modern dietetics by Attilio A.M. Del Re. Venue: Conference building Fee:50 €, cas. Price include transport by bus from the university to the whole social activities (excursion and concert). Book at the registration desk The Wine, Cheese and Salami Tour Poster Session During the poster vision, some wine experts will give you the opportunity to be introduced to the charms of selected local wines in collaboration with Mosaico Piacentino (www.mosaicopiacentino.it). As for the wines, our province boasts a longstanding wine-making tradition dating from Roman times: there is a story about Cicero, who, around two thousand years ago, during one of his speeches at the Senate, reproached his enemy Lucius Calpurnius Piso for drinking one glass too many of the "delicious Piacenza wines". In the last few years, many of these wines have been given an image boost, resulting in a sales increase, and some of them - like for example Gutturnio, a very fine red wine, Monterosso, a white wine from Val d'Arda, and Trebbianino, another white from Val Trebbia. Other typical wines are Barbera, a robust red wine, Bonarda, a sweeter red, and the whites from Valtidone, as well as the ever-present sparkling Malvasia, a delicious accompaniment to desserts. Equally ancient and rich is our cheesemaking tradition and salumi (cured pork meats), such as salame, pancetta and coppa. Enjoy a tasting tour of the delicious “pleasures of Piacenza”!
